Pick of the Week: Manga Strikes!

MICHELLE: I’m looking forward to so much this week! Ace of the Diamond, Chihayafuru, Promised Neverland, My Hero Academia, to name but a few. However, seinen romantic comedy from Mitsurou Kubo wins in my book. It’s gotta be Moteki. Plus, you get the first half of the series in one package. Nice!

SEAN: There is, frankly, an embarrassment of riches this week. including every single Shojo Beat title, as well as The Promised Neverland, which will be brilliant and make me suffer. But yes, I’m going with Moteki, a title we would never have seen here if not for Yuri on Ice taking off the way it did. I’m not complaining.

KATE:Moteki and The Promised Neverland are my must-read manga of the week. If I had to choose just one title, though, it would be the third volume of The Promised Neverland, since previous installment ended with a game-changing revelation.

ASH: I’m actively following so many of the series coming out this week! But when it comes to the pick of the week, debuts tend to get most of my attention, and so Moteki it is for me! (Although I’m also rather curious about Kenka Bancho Otome… )

ANNA: There’s a ton of great stuff coming out this week! It makes it so hard to pick! Like many others I have to give Moteki the edge though.

My Hero Academia is definitely a favorite of mine too! It’s been one of the few longer running series that has managed to keep my interest through every new chapter. Another new series that I’ve really been enjoying is The Devil’s Boy. It’s a darker action series that focuses on a boy who has been bullied so much that he’s become suicidal. After he begs for anyone or anything to help him, the archdevil Mephistopheles shows up and offers him a deal: intense magical powers that can help him get revenge on his bullies in exchange for his soul. What he doesn’t realize is that by accepting the deal, he’s throwing himself into a dangerous world of demons and exorcists. So far it’s been really entertaining! I definitely recommend trying it out if you’re ok with some gore.
